Accessibility

Microsoft Word

Microsoft Word is currently the most common word processor on the market. Because it is so common, the .doc or docx format has become the de facto format for text documents. Word is often used to create files that end up in PDF and HTML, so the accessibility of the original document is important to ensure that resulting PDFs and HTML files are likewise accessible.
